Question: Who discovered quantam physics

That’s an excellent question, but it’s quite hard to answer. Quantum physics wasn’t discovered by one person: it emerged from the work of many scientists over time, including Heisenberg, Schrödinger, and Dirac. Did you know that 2025 is the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology? It marks 100 years of quantum mechanics! However, the idea of “quanta” was first suggested as far back as 1900 by Max Planck and Albert Einstein.

I’ve found this interesting article about it:
